Concept list Kaiping 2018 591

The LexiRumah list was specifically designed for the study of Austronesian and Timor-Alor-Pantar families, and their contact history, in eastern Indonesia. The list expands Swadesh's 200 item list by concepts which were found to be subject to frequent borrowing (cf. Tadmor 2009), as well as concepts of strong cultural importance in the area (eg. betel nut, lontar palm, ritual ground).
